Will, Maria, Cadence, & Kylee Torres

Back HOME again!!

2010-04-04T22:28:00.002-06:00

So, for those of you who do not know, Will got accepted to MUSC and we are moving back home to SC the beginning of May!! We are both very excited for the girls to be around their cousins and for us to maybe get a date in here or there;) Alex and Tara are also moving back the same time we are and we are excited to be around them again too! Ava and Cadence and Lila will be best of friends!!

These 2 were meant to be sisters!! Cadence LOVES her baby sister! And Kylee LOVES Cadence! They are very cute to watch together.

This was one of our snow days-Cadence put on her goggles and asked if she could go play in the snow. Kylee was sleeping so I reverted back to my nursing school days and took the baby monitor outside and we played!!

Cadence has her toys that I take away when she doesn't go potty like a big girl... Well, when she gets them back she doesn't let go of them. This is about 10:30 or so at night. I went in the room to check on Cadence before going to bed myself and here's what I found!!

Kylee fell asleep on the recliner one day-she would not let me put her down in her room...

Here's our Halloween family photo shoot-as you can see Kylee was rather upset! But Cadence had a great time!

So, Luisa took this picture of Cadence when she came out to visit like last March (2009). I thought it was rather cute, so will share with all.

Kylee's Birth Announcement

2009-10-27T19:16:00.002-06:00

Hi all, this is Kylee's birth announcement. I thought the pictures turned out rather nicely. I will post the pictures once I get the CD of all the newborn pics...

Kylee's 2 Week Appointment

2009-10-14T15:35:00.000-06:00

Kylee had her 2 week appointment on Monday and she was 8.4 pounds or about 8lbs 7oz. She also was 21.1 inches long which makes me think she was a little longer than 20 inches at birth. So, if you couldn't guess she eats about every 1-2 hours in the day and about every 3 hours at night and does not spit up any of her food...she's got some cheeks!!! Look out Cadence-some competition!

(I've got some newborn pics coming soon-I'll post some as soon as I get them.)

This is Kylee the day we left the hospital, and yes, me with my preggo belly still.

Cadence loves her little sister!! Hardly lets her breathe, but at least she loves her!

New Baby Kylee

It's a Girl...

Well, Kylee weighed more than Cadence at 7 lbs 9 oz, but came in an inch shorter at 20". We'll have to wait and see who wins in the long run-Kylee eats every hour!!

(I will post more pictures later-Will needs to use his computer for school work...)

This was part of our Easter adventure. Sorry it has taken so long to get new photos-Will lost our USB connector for our camera so I have been unable to download pictures onto the computer until now...

We went to the zoo in Salt Lake City and Cadence had to ride the carousel. In fact it was rather hard to get her off once her turn was finished... She loved it!

Since then we've had a good break from school with family. The Torres family came out here to visit us in August and then we went to San Diego to visit Alex, Tara, Ava, and Snoopy... No pictures because there was no memory space so Alex and Tara have all the pictures. There are some pictures of us on their blog though...

I am currently 37 weeks preggo. I believe that I will not last too much longer, so I will try to get some preggo pictures before the baby comes. I feel much smaller than I did with Cadence, but I think the weight gain is about the same unfortunately-another year of hard work to get it all off!

Trip to SC!!

Cadence knows how to smile for the camera-just ask her!

Yellowstone 2008

2009-02-23T14:33:00.000-07:00

Here are some wonderful pictures from our trip to Yellowstone in August 2008...

Mom and Dad-I can still smell them! The sulfur pots that is!

Daddy and Cadence at the painted mountains...

Our happy family along a sand island in the crater lake at Yellowstone.

A beautiful view of the crater lake at Yellowstone.

Will has Cadence sitting on the railing which would have made Abuelita very nervous!

Here is the view from a hike that Mom and Dad wouldn't let us finish. This view was good enough for them.

Cadence is hanging on to Daddy for dear life. (Just kidding-she loved her new little backpack.)
